A Certain Magical Index Abridged Series
Project Overview
Hi, I'm Pika Cheeks and I'm looking to return to Abridged and start a new series! A Certain Magical Index Abridged! It's an anime about Touma Kamijou who lives in Academy City and after meeting a mysterious priestess nun named Index, he finds himself in a conflict between Magic and Science! Lots of religious factions and organizations coupled with lots of scientific conspiracies and experiments!
What is an Abridged?
Just incase you don't know what an Abridged Parody is, it is taking an already existing piece of Media, mostly Anime and rescripting and redubbing it and making it condensed. It is to parody and shorten the original story but could also be used to properly flesh out certain parts. This Abridged Parody not so much aims to be much shorter than the original but essentially redub the series and try to take the series in a different direction in a comedic tone. With a little more influence from the Light Novels to given more insight while still trying to condense it.
What am I looking for?
I'm mainly looking for some voice actors! I have some roles that have already been cast and some roles I'll add in the future! I'm a pretty good editor and well, I wouldn't mind having another video editor to help make the series come out faster! I'm willing to take up an apprentice for video editing, I'll be able to teach some important editing tricks for Abridging and overall Internet Meme videos.
There are some certain rules I must make so by auditioning you'll agree with these terms.
REQUIREMENTS
- You must add on me Discord for easier communication if you have been casted. Communication is important!
- Lines are expected to have a 2 Week turnover, if you are unable to do so, please tell me and set a date on when you could! I'll understand!
- You must be committed and interested in the project! Without that then you'll ultimately be wasting not only your time and effort but also mine!
- No headphone mics! Blue Yetis and AT2020 or similar quality is minimum!
- You must be down for Direction, especially if you're a recurring character! If you do a good job and I can see you understand the character well then Direction won't be needed!
- Be okay with Redos! I have a vision and I aim to make sure everyone does a great job! I might need to ask for Redos, somethings can't be noticed until done! I'll be patient and understanding. Please understand this is important.
- You must be okay with Swearing!
- If you have a problem be sure to tell me. Communication is important!
These requirements are here since I'd like to make sure there's some nice quality in the production and presentation! I aim for this project to be fun! I'd like to keep it a semi-professional type of relationship but I don't want to be too strict or formal! Let's have a good time!

+1 NEW LEAD ROLE! TOUMA KAMIJOU APPEARS!
I originally had Touma Kamijou cast however due to a change in plans, I've decided I need a new Touma! (Old Touma clashed with Tsuchimikado character and voice wise.) I highly would like someone who voices Touma to be a fan of Index! Or someone who's willing to watch the series! It's okay if you don't, but it'd definitely be nice! It's a huge committment! Good luck to those auditioning! I can't wait to hear em! LET'S HAVE SOME FUN! -
More Roles Added!
Heya! I've opened up more roles! They're mostly minor to supporting ones though! Both Female and Male!
Character - Touma is the main character of A Certain Magical Index! He is a "regular" Teenage boy however he has the power of Imagine Breaker, he's basically the chosen one.
Personality - He's generally played as Straightman. He is pretty much your typical Anime Protagonist, however he is slightly perverted and slightly cynical. He's someone who doesn't give a damn.
Voice - Middle-Deep Voice. Typical Anime Protagonist type of voice but be sure to have some bass to the voice. There will be a lot of shouting. Be able to give the impression he's someone who wants to be left alone but has to constantly deal with everyone.
Or just try to sound like the Touma's Official Dub! - https://youtu.be/_GQFkFb1O1w I actually want the voice to sound very similar to the original if possible. It's probs the best voice that could be given to him.
*IMPORTANT NOTE* This is THE MAIN CHARACTER! You must definitely be committed to this role. If you've seen the series, more power to you. I hope whoever takes this role will enjoy this project and be involved.
Alright Kamijou, it may be hot as balls up in here, there may be rancid food that can kill someone in the fridge. And someone may have called you up just to tell you you’re stupid.
(Direction Note - You're recounting your day)
FUCK YOU, MAGIC ISN'T REAL BUT MY SPEED DIAL FOR CHRIS HANSEN IS! SO PISS OFF CREEP!
Oh, yay more role-play delusions. Tell me, does your holy robe give you +10 intelligence too?
Character - Index is a priestess for the English Puritan Church. She has 103,000 magical books memorised in her mind.
Personality - Generally Childish and Hyper Aggressive. If she doesn't get what she wants she throws a tantrum. However she does have a mature side to her sometimes.
Voice - Middle to High Pitch. Sound cute but you're actually a hellspawn. When she isn't being immature and shouting, Index should have an air of elegance to her words, gentle and soft.
Or just try to sound like Index Official Dub - https://youtu.be/_KB8YhpYuno I think it could sound a bit better though! Aim to sound abit younger than the dub.
Ravioli, ravioli, please feed the hungry priestess loli!
I’m the cutest girl you’ve ever met! And I believe in our lord and saviour Jesus Christ! Now feed me! BEFORE I START SCREAMING!
DID YOU JUST ASSUME MY RELIGION?! I'M A CHRISTIAN NUN! AND FOR THE LAST TIME THIS ISN'T ROLE-PLAY!
Character - Misaka is a middle schooler and is the 3rd Ranked Level 5 Esper who has control over anything electrical!
Personality - Adamant and a strong sense of justice. She is rather tomboy-like but at her core she is feminine and gets flustered too. She's definitely someone to shoot first and ask questions later type of person.
Voice - Middle Pitch. Tomboy-ish and firm with her words. She's mature for her age. But remember to not lose her feminine quality to her. Just think of it as a Girl putting on a facade to appear tough.
Or just try to sound like Misaka's Official Dub - https://youtu.be/o79zNPTBENs
IMPORTANT NOTE - Mikoto Misaka is a very popular character in the Toaru Series along with Accelerator. If I'm unable to cast Mikoto before the deadline, I'll extend the deadline or reserve her for round 2 of casting! I hope you understand!
Shoot first, ask questions later is a thing and has been a thing for a long time. Now you mind telling me your name?
Yes, I got tricked by an evil corporation into giving my DNA to them so they could create an entire clone army of me for a lifetime free membership at Taco Bell. Don't judge me, I was only 6 at the time! YOU WOULD HAD DONE THE SAME TOO!
UGH FOR THE LAST TIME MY NAME DOES NOT RHYME WITH CHEWBACCA! IT'S MIKOTO MISAKA!
Character - Kanzaki Kaori is a magician who works for the English Puritan Church and wields a long Katana.
Personality - She is a rather serious and stoic character. However she does get flustered easily because people make fun of how she dresses.
Voice - Middle to Low Pitch. Sultry and Defiant-like, there's a certain air of elegance in her voice. She talks like a true heroine, like a Female Knight.
Or just try to sound like her English Dub Voice! https://youtu.be/1zDuvQdVhog?t=48 Or Eula from Genshin Impact!
I am Kanzaki Kaori of the English Puritan Church.
NINJA STRIPPER LADY!?? Excuse you!? I'll have you know this outfit is perfectly suited in form and function!
In a blink of an eye, I can have you carved up into minced meat for a shish kebab and have your remains donated to a charity for starving cannibals. Or, you hand over Index and keep your life. I'd choose wisely.
Character - Accelerator is a level 5 Esper Ranked 1 and he has the ability to control all vectors (Motion). He is the most powerful esper, thanks to that, he's also a complete psychopath that likes killing people for fun. He plays an antagonist role in the first arc he appears in before becoming an Anti Hero.
Personality - A complete Psycho Maniac. He can be cool and calculating one moment and then suddenly burst into a fiery rage. He likes to crack a few quips here and there and is often on the edge of completely losing it. He is not someone you want to piss off.
Voice - Middle to Deep Pitch. He has to sound cold,calculating and unhinged in a smart and unsettling way with a gravelly voice. He is a character that often shouts and screams so be prepared for that. When he shouts it sounds like a growl.
https://youtu.be/6sw572l5yhU?t=21 If you're able to pull off something similar to his English Voice then that'd be nice too! I actually envision Accelerator to sound like Light Yagami's English Dub voice.
IMPORTANT NOTE - Accelerator is a very popular character in the Toaru Series along with Mikoto Misaka. If I'm unable to cast Accelerator before the deadline, I'll extend the deadline or reserve him for round 2 of casting! I hope you understand!
I'M THE ACCELERATOR, BITCH! MASTER OF VECTORS! WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU!?
I did some calculations and it looks like I'm going to have to science the shit out of this.
EVISCERATING PEOPLE INTO A BLOODY MESS IS JUST ANOTHER TUESDAY FOR ME!
Character - Shirai is a middle schooler who is a Level 4 Esper who has the ability to teleport and works for Judgement, a volunteer group for security, basically neighbourhood watch or hall pass.
Personality - She has a strong sense of justice and is assertive when working. She often acts formal but she has another side which is immature and fiery. She is a simp for Mikoto Misaka and would do anything for her and becomes slightly perverted.
Voice - Middle to High Pitch. She should sound young but have an air of maturity to her words. Think of her as someone who should sound like a goody two shoes but is actually very naughty and sassy.
Or just try to sound like Shirai's Official Dub - https://youtu.be/XZCT3qptY4s but I'm open to any interpretations and I'm thinking we could do better!
I am Kuroko Shirai of JUDGEMENT! And YOU'RE all going to HORNY JAIL!
We can't trust Doctor Kiyama...She drives a lamborghini. NEVER trust someone who drives a lamborghini - cause chances are, they've comitted tax fraud.
Yeah yeah I know, I read the file; Therestina Kihara, reported to be Dumb, Found Dead. CAUSE DYING IN ACADEMY CITY IS DUMB.
Character - Aogami Pierce is a class mate of Touma. He's pretty much just a pervert that tries to act cool but often says dumb things.
Personality - He's pretty much just a huge pervert that tries to act cool but often says dumb things.
Voice - Middle to Deep Voice. Cool with an air of pervertedness to your performance. If you want, you could go try going for an accent! I'm willing to experiment!
Or just try to sound like Aogami's Official Dub - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwhC8oJirQY
No kidding, how could anyone be upset with a teacher like that. Look at her tiny little legs.

I'd like to have her ass on my face. Face. Ass. Face. Ass. Yes, I want her ass, on my face.
Character - Uiharu is a Judgement Officer but she's more the tech person of the squad. She just types away on her computer.
Personality - Mature, reserved and slightly timid. However she does get pretty crazy as well.
Voice - High Pitch voice. She has a gentle and soft way of speaking, like an angel or princess. However she also sounds mature for her age as she is responsible. But she also does bursts into some crazy rants and sounds like a karen but a loli, think of her like a Pomerainian Dog or someone with a Napoleon Complex.
Or just try to sound like Uiharu Official Dub - https://youtu.be/OSTHvTD1nTI?t=18 The dub is pretty much how I'd like it too!
Oh no the Level Zeroes are getting mad that their Centrelink Payments are being cut off!

I HATE TACO TUESDAYS! Sorry Doctor Kiyama but my parents told me to never negotiate with Terrorists! Let alone eat their Tacos!
Character - Miss Komoe is Touma's Teacher. She's like over 30 years old but she looks questionably young.
Personality - Mature and tries to act kind and soft. But deep inside she is very angry. Like a Pomerainian or Chihuahua with a Napoleon Complex! She gets mad when people make short or hobbit jokes around her! She is also an adult which contrasts her child-like appearance.
Voice - High Pitch voice. Sound l ike a responsible teacher, keep in mind she is still an adult but sounds young.
Or just try to sound like Miss Komoe's English Dub voice - https://youtu.be/bn3bZO-j0CA?t=33 but I'm open to any new interpretations

Oh goodie, my toy is finally here! HEY WAIT A SECOND! Since when does Amazon handle deliveries at 12AM!?
Character - A Doctor nick named "Heaven Canceller" since he is always able to save patients from dying.
Personality - He's old and stern but still has a slight humour, very dry and direct.
Voice - Deep Pitch Voice. Be able to sound mature, responsible and intelligent. He's your typical middle aged doctor.
A piece of Dragon's Breath fell onto your head and fried your brain, literally killing your braincells and thus giving you memory loss.
The test results came in and you definitely have Ass Cancer.
Don't worry, I won't tell a single soul that you had ass cancer for a moment. You have my word as a Doctor.
I'm well versed in editing myself however, having a supporting video editor would help make episodes come out faster! I am looking for someone I can have as an apprentice, I'll be sure to teach some useful techniques and conventions in Video Editing. So if you have an interest in Abridge and want to improve, I'll be willing to have you under my wing!
THIS ISN'T IMPORTANT but this is only for those who are truly passionate and want to hone their editing skills and learn about Abridging!
REQUIREMENTS
I only know how to use Sony Vegas, so you must have that atleast. If you have Adobe Premiere, I won't be able to teach you but if you're still down to help edit, sure.
Must be committed to the project and to video editing!
Show me any video you've edited, extra points for Abridged Parodies.
DUTIES

Once I've gotten to know you a bit better and that I reckon you're ready to edit an entire episode, payment will be in mind in the future. However don't go into this role thinking about money. This is PURELY a HOBBY role.
Say something you think would fit
